Tiffani Thiessen's directorial
debut 'Just Pray' is based on the story by acclaimed
author R. Dean Johnson. The Original Motion Picture
Soundtrack CD's line-up, featuring Paul Doucette
(drummer for Matchbox 20), Lori McKenna, Cheryl Wheeler,
Grammy Award winner Tanya Donelly (Belly), and others succinctly
capture the essence of Johnson's powerful screenplay. Each
artist adds to the CD's haunting beauty in each of their
compositions, effectively underscoring the lead male character's
persona and dilemma.
Director's Statement:
'Just Pray' is a coming of age story involving a young Southern
boy who is searching for resolution within his life. The
film shares a beautiful and universal message about hope,
redemption and salvation - things that I feel we can all
relate to. Sometimes you find these qualities in the most
unexpected people and in the most unexpected places. Directing
this film was a gift and provided me the unforgettable opportunity
to participate in the magic of storytelling. It is an experience
I will treasure for a lifetime. — Tiffani Thiessen
